What volume of carbon dioxide can be obtained by the interaction of 20 g of limestone containing
What volume of carbon dioxide can be obtained by the interaction of 20 g of limestone containing 97% of impurities with hydrochloric acid?
1.Let’s find the mass of pure CaCO3 limestone.
100% – 97% = 3%.
20 g – 100%,
X – 3%,
X = (3% × 20 g): 100% = 0.6 g.
2.Let’s find the amount of substance CaCO
n = m: M.
M (CaCO3) = 100 g / mol.
n = 0.6 g: 100 g / mol = 0.006 mol.
Let’s find the quantitative ratios of substances.
CaCO3 + 2HCl → CaCl2 + H2O + CO2 ↑.
For 1 mol of CaCO3, there is 1 mol of CO2.
Substances are in quantitative ratios 1: 1.
The amount of substance will be equal.
n (CO2) = n (CaCO3) = 0.006 mol.
3.Let’s find the volume of CO2.
V = Vn n, where Vn is the molar volume of gas, equal to 22.4 l / mol, and n is the amount of substance.
V = 0.006 mol × 22.4 L / mol = 0.1344 L.
Answer: 0.1344 l.
